Le gouvernement économique de la filière sucre-énergie : blocages sectoriels et territoriaux des perspectives de développement au Brésil by Mathieu Fruleux

“…This one uncovers the chain’s organizational and institutional changes and the uncertainties that induced its new governance. We conclude that the distributive intentionality of the economic government of the Workers’ Party did not give rise to a corresponding governance of actors of a re-industrialization conversely to the objective of growth of primary exports.…”

Invoking spatial justice in urban mobility in Nairobi: A commuter’s perspective by Dorcas Nthoki Nyamai

“…Furthermore, the unclear laws and regulations that govern road use sustain a system riddled with uncertainties and injustices. Promoting transparency, creating platforms for citizen engagement, integrating technology in traffic management system, fostering a culture of accountability, and enhancing public awareness of regulations and mobility rights through comprehensive civic education represent some of the interventions and strategies that can be invoked to redress the injustices prevalent in Nairobi’s mobility landscape. …”

An Innovative Policy For Rural Development? Rethinking Barriers to Rural Communities Earning Their Living from Forests in Indonesia by Ahmad Maryudi

“…That the government-initiated community forestry schemes fall short of the initial targets in terms of the extent of state forest land areas managed by to forest communities to a large extent is explained bythe regulatory barriers of tenurial uncertainties and the complexlicensing procedures. Those coupled by the limited capacityas technical assistance rarely provided by government institutions appear to impede local people to secure better livelihood.…”

Runoff Simulation of Dadu River Basin Based on CORDEX Regional Climate Models by PAN Zhangrong, GUO Junhong, FU Zhenghui, WANG Shuhang, LI Wei, CHEN Zhuo, QING Hui

“…Studying the prediction of the runoff in Dadu River Basin under climate changes can effectively improve the future utilization rate of the water resources in this basin and provide a reference for hydropower dispatching.Specifically,stepwise clustering analysis is performed to correct and verify the 1970—2005 data of six coordinated regional climate downscaling experiment (CORDEX) regional climate models and thereby simulated the climate change trend of Dadu River Basin during 2030—2065.Then,an annual-scale Soil & Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model of Dadu River Basin was built and calibrated and verified by SWAT-CUP.Finally,the corrected meteorological data of the future period were used to drive the SWAT model and ultimately to forecast the future runoff in Dadu River Basin.The results show that in this basin,precipitation will change slightly,and the maximum temperature and the minimum temperature will increase on the whole under future representative concentration pathway (RCP) 4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios.The future runoff will roughly assume an increasing trend,and the runoff fluctuation trend before and after 2050 will be inconsistent.In other words,the runoff change is small before 2050,whereas the trend of runoff change under both scenarios becomes significantly larger,suggesting higher uncertainties in the prediction of the runoff in this basin.…”
